Getting an appraisal from Centurion Appraisal before putting your DuPont home on the market saves you time and money.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, a professional appraisal is absolutely necessary. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless a homeowner spends hours every week on real estate valuation, like a professional appraiser does, it's difficult for them to understand local real estate values.

This isn't a discussion of how much you have invested in your home, or how much you want for it. Instead, an appraisal assesses how much your home will bring on the open market.

Appraisals are valuable tools for homeowners selling without an agent

More and more WA homeowners are choosing to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the help of a real estate agent.

  • Call attention to any issues and eliminate last-minute repair hassles that might delay a closing

So by taking the first step and spending a little on a professional appraisal provided the data to support a sale for thousands more than they expected they would get.
